Title: B. Braun
Post by: UkrainianTracksuit on July 14, 2014, 07:09:54 PM

Hi,

Has anyone done a few sessions or regularly does their HD at a B. Braun clinic?  I have to present a paper out of town and this seems to be the only company "servicing" patients.

I understand it is a very well established and respected company.  The website makes the clinics globally sound pleasant but I'd like first hand reviews.  (Don't all websites make clinics look great?)  I do my HD in hospital so I'm unfamiliar with corporate clinics.  Thanks!

Hi Rerun, thanks for the reply.  Yes, I've heard of B. Braun machines and I think [or recall?] they have a good reputation in the industry?  Does a good reputation with equipment translate into good service at centers?  They say they have "over 250 centers worldwide".   

The last out of town center I had to use for work ended up giving me an infection so I apologize if I seem inquisitive.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Yes, I saw they don't have services in North America.  I'm going to Bratsk where they seem to run the centers. 

Maybe if North Americans didn't experience their services, I hoped someone in Europe and UK has or someone has tried their vacation dialysis.  I'll have to ask on the "slower moving" regional forums. 

Thanks again.
